Meet the Artist: Malika Favre

French-born, London-based artist Malika Favre has a distinct style, using color to define positive and negative space that's somehow both stark and subtle—and decidedly evocative. Case in point: A recent cover illustration for The New Yorker spawned a movement to replicate the image in real life.

Malika's work can be found all over the world, from Vogue to the Montreux Jazz Festival, and now on Lincoln Center's campus, where Mozart's iconic portrait has been reinterpreted for the Mostly Mozart Festival.

First "design" memory?The Pink Floyd cover of Dark side of the Moon. My parents loved them and I was fascinated by that cover as a kid.
